Chapter 104: 103 Unit Celebration

Tonight, the Chundu Grand Hotel was unusually lively.

Nearly eighty people from the Dongfang Bank’s Nanxin Branch gathered together; apart from those on duty at the branch and its subordinate outlets, and a few who had taken leave due to family matters, everyone else was here.

Xia He was generous too—beyond the feast, she specifically ordered premium wine: Great Wall Jiebainal and Yanghe Mengzhi Lan.

These past few years had been the bank’s most comfortable, so spending money was very generous.

Everyone ate and drank.

Yun Ling felt deeply moved; she had thought gaining Bingxin’s approval would be extremely difficult, but it turned out to be so simple.

At that moment, Chu Tian noticed involuntarily that the State Tutor, who had always been inseparable from Duan Long, was nowhere to be seen! Something unusual must be afoot; though he didn’t yet know why, Chu Tian kept a watchful eye and quietly noted it.

Tian Jinghai and others launched a fierce counterattack against the Seven Sect Lords, but their losses had been catastrophic—especially since all the elders from the Tiantai Sect who had come here were killed—and nearly a thousand cultivators from the opposing side joined forces. The power of the Seven Sect Lords now could likely sweep away all top experts.

By the time all the dishes were served, it was already past noon; Ma Yun hadn’t even had time to sit down and eat when Li JingSui raised a cup of Fushuichun to toast. Tang people liked naming wines with the character “Chun”; though the Tang Dynasty had fallen not long ago, the Southern Tang still claimed to be the Tang’s true successor, so the custom remained unchanged.

Without any concealment, Sun Liu laid out everything: how he and Su Ke, along with Chu Kuangren, had injured Wang Kou, and how they had captured him. His account matched Hou San’s, proving that Hou San and Zeng Yizhi had not hidden anything—they told the truth.

Caroline nodded, then entered the cell, raised her staff, aimed it at the male corpse, and began softly chanting something.

Later, Mollith invited Hitler to his home for an interview, where he saw another side of Hitler and realized Hitler’s heart was filled with arrogant ambition; from then on, he began opposing Hitler in his newspaper, and lost his job because of it.

Elder Wu was no slow man; he said, “I will avenge you!” A dark aura flared around him, blood trickled from his lips, and his aura surged violently.

“If you don’t come out now, I won’t mind being the villain!” Meng Yueyun said coolly, undisturbed by the surrounding noise.

“No way!” Li Xiangyun stared at Bai Liuguang, who looked as if his secret had been exposed.

“Here are your two choices: First, don’t tell me the mecha god’s activation code—you die, I escape. Second, tell me the mecha god’s code—you return to your Beishan Brotherhood, and I escape too!” Li Hongfei concluded with finality.

“What are you doing!! Put me down! Put me down!!” Xin Yi kicked and struggled as he carried her over his shoulder, but the man showed no sign of letting go.

Level seventeen or eighteen half-beasts no longer met the group’s leveling needs; the Half-Beast Valley had already been ransacked by Hua Rong’s gang, and it likely hadn’t respawned yet, so after passing through the Wild Bull Men’s territory, they headed in another direction.

Seeing “Glasses” being carried down from the rear compartment on a folding stretcher by two team members, Shi Cheng rushed forward.

With one hand flicked upward, a bolt of lightning flashed across the clear blue sky—a leaping, crackling fire serpent that arced from the heavens straight to Xiu Yi’s palm.

Gong Hao couldn’t explain too clearly; if he told Fink that every servant taken away ended up dead, Fink would be terrified. Fink couldn’t fool Andrew’s eyes—he was still too young.

Shazhali’s eyes gleamed sharply, but suddenly he felt a dull ache in his lower back from having bent too long.
